Sounds like you are putting your foot down. It's a great feeling to be in charge of yourself. You are on the way to better health and freedom. You are an inspiration to all of us who need to do the very same thing. Luck has nothing to do with losing weight, so I won't wish you Good Luck. However, I hope you stay strong and not let anything get in your way of reaching your goals.

Congratulations on your important step!

Keep a sense of humor. Remember, laughing burns calories too!

Laugh until it hurts! It's one of the few things in life that's still free!!

Okay soooo I had to tell someone so what better than to tell my sparkfriends! I am 19 years old almost and I have been dreading having the talk with my family about my health. I am 357 pounds and they don't really seem to care.

Well tonight I told them, I was going to see a nutritionist and that I was going to start buying and making all my own food. Which would mean that I would not be giving them money for food anymore. They actually took it really well. So now I actually have the oppurtunity to try all the great spark recipes that I have been seeing :)
